what happens if we find one of these would-be terrorists in egypt? that's what this does position matrix as it is called is about. it is mapping out those kinds of contingencies because you're right, the drone strikes we've known and written about for the past five or so years have mainly happened in three places. in pakistan, in yemen and in somalia. but the turmoil across the middle east, north africa, now points to the possibility that you could have al qaeda elements emerging, surfacing in places where you don't have u.s. drone patrols. so this, you know, this is an exercise in trying to figure out what do you do in those circumstances? especially since some of these u.s. counterterrorism relationships with countries like egypt have been turned completely upside down. jon: greg miller is the intelligence reporter at "the washington post." it is a fascinating series running in the post. greg, thank you. >> thanks very much. jenna: we'll watch for more on that. meantime some context now on the expanding use of drones in the war on terror. what does
